Bringing together recent bodies of work, Echoes explores the delicate relationship between landscape, memory, and time. While rooted in photography, Lansink’s practice extends into painting, collage, and sculpture, transforming her images of nature into layered reflections on perception, impermanence, and our connection to the natural world.
Each work begins with a photograph made by the artist. Printed on delicate Japanese washi paper and mounted on canvas, the image is reworked with layers of acrylic paint. Folds, tensions, and irregularities remain visible, becoming part of the work itself. Through this process, the works become poetic echoes of memory and experience, speaking of places that continue to live within us and of the imprints that experiences leave behind.
This sensibility extends into Lansink's sculptural works, where material and process reflect her ongoing dialogue with the natural world. Created from a deep awareness of its vulnerability, these works invite viewers to slow down, look closely, and consider what we choose to preserve, carry with us, and pass on.
